He ended the game on an amazing 5 man run that was over 7 mil. Think about that. He ended it.

Can't wait for Sunday's finals.

Yeah, very cool to see Barra pull it out, and get the championship, and the sweet $10,000!

I gave Laidlaw the benefit of the doubt in the semi when he stood up which caused Barra to lose two ships.  But having heard the story from the man himself, it would seem Laidlaw carried on like a prize tool for the majority of the weekend.

So now I guess we have our two players for the next CAG documentary - we have a hero and villain - what all good movies/doco's need :)

Congrats Barra.  I hope a small portion of that prize money is set aside to buy yourself a cab to put a real PCB in and smash all records on the Arcade track.

Congrats mate!  Way to keep your composure after the semis fiasco.  You make a chit game, cool.    Kreygasm

There was something eating everyone
And the sunshine fund was low
We couldn't greet you with a simple hello
